Department of Prosthetics and Orthotics Engineering Commemorates the International Day of Persons with Disabilities

The United Nations' International Day of Persons with Disabilities is observed annually on December 3. Established by the United Nations in 1992, this day aims to support individuals with disabilities by fostering understanding of disability-related issues and promoting inclusive designs that ensure the rights of persons with disabilities. It also seeks to raise awareness about integrating people with disabilities into political, economic, and cultural life.

The Department of Prosthetics and Orthotics Engineering contributed in this day as a specialized institution dedicated to training engineers whose primary mission is to restore functionality for individuals with physical disabilities through prosthetic solutions. This work embodies a deeply humanitarian purpose, marked by uplifting spirits, raising awareness, encouraging social integration, and providing invaluable service to a vital segment of society.
